Quote from @Rereloluwa Fatunmbi: Quote from @Andrew Steffens: You definitely saw what I was getting at - this house IMO looks like a great place for a bachelorette party / bridal party etc. 

I know for the forseeable future I will be based in Quantico, Virginia but I am definitely open to out of state investing!

@Kegan Scholl definitely connect with @Jackson Harris and dive into the AZ market if you have not already!

We even had to do a lease back to them while the carport situation was being finalized.There is definitely some luck involved with every deal, but I think as investors we can create our own luck as well based on knowledge and experience.  

Everyone’s needs are different, but I definitely wouldn’t write off Hospitable.

We will definitely put it in the guest book + inform guests! 

Pro rata is the best but it’s definitely not the fairest and it causes the tenants to be upset, for good reason. 

Always get a home that is fully complete and ready to move in, that is my 2 cents from all this experience.If anything changes in my case i will definitely post here and keep you all informed.

But there's definitely risks that come with that as well.

And while a 1031 exchange isn’t an option, some people explore alternatives like installment sales to spread out taxes or even tweaking the investment structure so your returns are treated as interest instead of equity.There are definitely some creative strategies out there.
